If I understand your questions  right...
1. People long distances away should be able to find your server, but they probably won't join beacuse it'll have a high ping.
2. You have to pay for a server because it's very, very unlikely you have the appropriate amount of bandwidth and speed and such to run a successful server. If you want to run a server off your own computer, fine, but don't expect anyone's ping to be great.

Or does he mean that no one can see the server? In that case make sure you have done the following:

Quote
The most common problems when setting up servers are routers and firewalls. If the server machine goes through a router, make sure you set the router to forward UDP packets on port 27910 (or whatever port you're running the server on) to the server machine. Likewise open up port 27910 on your firewall and ensure that paintball2.exe is allowed to act as a server.

UDP and TCP are the two main protocols used on the Internet.  They aren't the same.

You need to forward port 27910 on your router as well as devastate your firewall.

or it has others?

You must be using a translator.  What's your native language?  Perhaps somebody who speaks your language could explain it better.

And port 27910 is the only port you need to forward, but it needs to be for UDP.

Post by: lekky on March 23, 2007, 10:54:22 AM
you need to set up port forwarding on your router for port 27910. I think do what Jits said and tell us what language you speak!

Skurt what language do you speak? We can get someone who speaks your language to explain it to you.

There are many germans in this community, just start typing in german and someone will either translate better or tell you how to fix it in german
Title: Re: Hello, i'm new here/.. and have a grav problam :/
Post by: Skurt on March 24, 2007, 12:09:41 PM

Skurt: Hast du neben der Windows Firewall noch andere Programme mit Firewall, z.B. ZoneAlarm o.ä.?
Weißt du wie du Ports in deinem Router freischalten kannst?

he wants to talk to you in german, that's why he made a post in all german. it would be easier for us to understand you if you spoke your native language, so talk to bitmate in GERMAN so we can help you
Title: Re: Hello, i'm new here/.. and have a grav problam :/
Post by: bitmate on March 25, 2007, 08:28:45 AM
I guess he isn't German, but Polish or something like that.

i need a global ip to open server?
Title: Re: Hello, i'm new here/.. and have a grav problam :/
Post by: bitmate on March 25, 2007, 07:27:17 PM
What router (if you are behind a router) are you using? Normally you can forward ports quite easily. There must be some kind of menu for that ;-)
Once you managed to get there, open port 27910 using the UDP protocol.

Post by: jitspoe on March 26, 2007, 04:24:08 PM
If you're running windows 98, you probably shouldn't be running a server in the first place...

If you're running windows 98, you probably shouldn't be running a computer at all.

You're behind a router, like we said before. You have to forward port 27910 UDP.

Post by: KiLo on March 26, 2007, 07:59:38 PM
I know we try to fix people's problems but this one is just out of control. It's out of control because we can't communicate with the person who has the problem.

In my opinion Jits should just lock this board and forget this problem ever existed.

I highly doubt he is even German. He lacks proper grammar both in English and in German. =/
